Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a combination of a load cell and a tubular insert for mounting in a bore in a machine component, e.g. a bore in a bearing housing wall.
  • load cells mainly in form of strain gauges for determining such bearing load.
  • Such a load cell is for instance a sensor marketed by Wesmar AB, Sweden under the name GOZINTA, although there are other examples on load cells appropriate for the task.
  • the GOZINTA load cell has to be pushed into a bore with a very narrow fit, which furthermore makes mounting and dismounting difficult.
  • the purpose of the present invention is to propose a combined load cell and tubular insert to be mounted in a bore in such a manner that it can make a load cell of the type described, have a sufficient tension in a bore for allowing the load cell to emit output signals high enough to give satisfactory load measuring results, and this has been achieved in that the combination of load cell and tubular insert has been given the features defined in the accompanying claim 1.
  • Fig. 1 shows a cross section through a wall with a bore in which is inserted a tubular insert with a load cell, also shown in cross section.
  • Fig. 2 is a schematic end view illustrating the positioning of strain gauges in the load cell.
  • Fig. 3 is an end view of the insert with load cell of an embodiment different from the one schematically illustrated in Fig. 2, but resembling to the embodiment incorporated in Fig. 1
  • Fig. 4 is a side view of the insert as illustrated in Fig. 1,
  • Fig. 5 illustrates schematically in cross section another embodiment of an insert
  • Fig. 6 is a cross section of a further embodiment of an insert according to the invention.
  • Fig. 7 is a cross section of a bearing outer race ring, with an example of the fitting of the insert in a bore in the race ring, shown schematically and with an enlarged portion shown encircled.
  • Fig. 1 shows a cross section through a portion of a partially shown wall 1 of a machine component for which load, which is acting upon the component to be measured.
  • a bore 2 is arranged in the wall 1, and in the embodiment illustrated, this bore 2 is a through-bore, although it can also be a blind bore.
  • a tubular insert with a load cell, together designated 3 In the bore 2 is inserted, from one side thereof, a tubular insert with a load cell, together designated 3, and incorporating an outer sleeve 4 with an integrated pressure flange 5 at one axial end thereof.
  • the inner envelope surface of the outer sleeve 4 is formed with a generally tapering saw-tooth-shape.
  • An inner sleeve 6 is equipped with a load cell 7.
  • This inner sleeve 6 has an outer envelope surface formed with a generally tapering saw-tooth-shape, being a complement to the sawtooth-shape in the inner envelope surface of the outer sleeve 4.
  • a locking collar 8 has an inner flanged wall provided with an internal thread, which can be screwed up on an outer thread on the end of the inner sleeve opposite to the end having the tapering saw-tooth- shape, thereby allowing the inner sleeve 6 and the locking collar 8 to be detachably but firmly interconnected, thus that there is a small clearance 9 between the pressure flange 5 and the adjacent, annular part of the locking collar 8, when this is fully screwed up on the threads of the inner sleeve 6.
  • the locking collar 8 is provided with a number of threaded through-bores 10, in each of which is positioned a grub screw 11.
  • the locking collar 8 has an opening 12, intended for passage of signal cables (not shown) to the load cell 7.
  • Fig. 2 shows schematically a possible embodiment of a load cell 7, in which is illustrated the main direction of the load F acting on the load cell, and the positioning of strain gauges 13 forming part of the load cell 7.
  • Fig. 3 is an end view of the tubular insert and the load cell as seen from the left hand side in Fig. 1.
  • this embodiment there is provided four through-holes 14, and the portions bridging each pair of adjacent through-holes 14 are equipped with not further shown strain gauges, which therefore, like the embodiment shown in Fig. 2, will be positioned in a similar manner as the strain gauges 13. From this view it can also be seen that the outer sleeve 4 has a longitudinal slit 15.
  • Fig. 4 shows the tubular insert and the load cell 3 in Fig. 3, seen from the side.
  • the bore 2 in the machine component 1 shall preferably be positioned at a position where there is a centre of stress, which must be calculated for each application where the load cell shall be used.
  • Fig. 5 is illustrated a second embodiment of a combination of a load cell 7 and a tubular insert 3, comprising an outer sleeve 4 and an inner sleeve 6 having complementary tapering saw-tooth-formed surfaces facing each other.
  • the pressure flange 5' in this case is not integrated with the outer sleeve 4, but is arranged as a loose ring, arranged to enclose an end portion of the inner sleeve 6.
  • the parts of the combination of insert and load cell are illustrated without the bore in which it shall be introduced and it is also shown without tightening screws inserted in the threaded through bores 10.
  • the clearance 9 between the locking collar 8 and the pressure flange 5' will be adjusted by means of said not shown tightening screws.
  • Fig. 6 shows still another embodiment of a combination of a load cell 7 and a tubular insert 3, comprising an outer sleeve 4' and an inner sleeve 6'.
  • the outer sleeve 4' is provided with an integral pressure flange 5 in the same manner as the outer sleeve 4 of the embodiment illustrated in Fig. 1.
  • the difference to the first mentioned embodiment is that the cooperating tapering surfaces of the inner sleeve 6' and the outer sleeve 4' are both provided with straight tapering faces, i.e. these surfaces are not sawtooth-formed.
  • Fig. 7 finally is shown a cross section through an outer race ring 1' of a bearing in which race ring is provided a substantially radially extending bore 2'.
  • the encircled portion is shown in bigger scale, and it can here easily be seen how the combined load cell and insert 3 - which are here shown in simplified form - have been introduced in the through-bore 2' for effecting measurement of the load acting upon the bearing ring in an accurate and reliable manner.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une combinaison d'une cellule de charge (7) et d'un insert tubulaire (3) à monter dans un alésage (2) dans un composant de machine (1), la cellule de charge (7) étant structurellement raccordée à un manchon interne (6), qui est déplaçable, axialement, à l'intérieur d'un manchon externe (4), qui est insérable dans l'alésage (2), lesdits manchons interne et externe (6, 4) ayant des parties avec des surfaces d'enveloppe mutuellement effilées en regard l'une de l'autre, et un moyen (5, 8, 11) étant prévu pour déplacer le manchon interne (6) et le manchon externe (4) axialement l'un par rapport à l'autre pour dilater le manchon externe (4) partiellement afin d'augmenter l'adhérence entre l'insert (3) et l'alésage (2), donnant ainsi à la cellule de charge (7) une tension préalable suffisante pour émettre des signaux représentatifs de la charge actuelle agissant sur le composant de machine (1).
